Once it has been started by sufficient suction, the siphon in Fig. P3.169 will run continuously as long as reservoir fluid is available. Using Bernoulli€™s equation with no losses, show (a) that the exit velocity V2 depends only upon gravity and the distance H and (b) that the lowest (vacuum) pressure occurs at point 3 and depends on the distance L + H.
